@CohhCarnage Thanks Cohh - I'd love to watch you give it a shot.

@orthonormalist Well I loved Alastair Reynolds House of Suns, so perhaps I should check this one out indeed. Thanks!

@orthonormalist I'm not familiar actually

@wolfyxyt Whoaaaa

@Gathur_ You can reduce the difficulty at any time! All the way down to peaceful, if you like - no enemy attacks at all. It's a single player game, configure it how you want it.

Indie games to play in May: "Rimworld" is a hardcore "Animal Crossing"-like experience https://t.co/L5RwYCylsQ

Hey WaPo wrote about RimWorld. "The game’s never-ending balancing act of survival versus settlement growth will give you a sims-like experience unlike any other." Nice! https://twitter.com/washingtonpost/status/1264888493555306497

@eh_dubb Thanks :) FYI if you tweek with a name mention at the start of the message, it won't display for anyone but me. You can solve it by putting a period before my name. A mistake I made several times.

Complexity isn't inherently bad in game design. The things you actually want to reduce are player cognitive effort and learning barriers. Simplicity is one way to avoid these problems, but it's not the only one. Love simplicity but don't fear complexity.

@SnakeTrep Yep, we're testing a bunch of refinements to improve this, including choices between different rewards and refined quests all around. Look for that release soon. Or you can test it on the unstable Steam branch if you like.

@rzubek @GreyAlien Makes sense, and yeah I never use idioms like that which is why I wouldn't know. Too clever by half IMO.

@kroizs Any save from 2017 or later, roughly, should still load (unless it was modded, then all bets are off).

@GreyAlien But if _quadMesh is null it doesn't return anything... does it? Do assignment expressions return the final value and I never knew it? Probably dark magic I shouldn't be using anyway.

"Waiting" Did a lot of fog effects for this one, looked pretty decent! #rimworld #art https://t.co/Rfon4OrjCN

RimWorld 6: Infestation https://twitter.com/No_Tables/status/1260505708090425344

RT @Sharsets_: I made a spaceship for practice on the main screen of Rimworld! That's a really good design. @TynanSylvester https://t.co/IV…

@Makia0890 Thanks for the info.

@Makia0890 There should be a faction relations impact from that, wasn't there one?

@Dweezil_Babua Plasteel is also harder to get recently with some other changes; it's more about specializing the material.
